The universitystudent is said to be the boyfriend of the minor’stutor. InspectorMehboobAhmed, a seniorpoliceofficial at BharaKahuPoliceStation confirmed the arrest and said that the accusedstudent was in police custody.

Twenty three-year-old Ibrar, has reportedly confessed to the crime after his girlfriend, ZahraMehek, informed the police that her boyfriend had raped and killed a minorgirl, when she denied physicalrelations with him.

AdvocateMuzamilGujjar, lawyer of the accusedfamily, alleged that the police had falsely implicated Ibrar in the case. The lawyer claimed that there was no evidence that suggested his client’s involvement.

According to a policeofficial, Mehek had confessed that her boyfriend (Ibrar) had also pressurised her for physicalrelations and after her denial, which “upset” her boyfriend, the man forcibly raped the 11-year-old child, due to which the child bled. Assuming that she had died, the man and the tutor then set her on fire to cover up their crime, the official said.

The lawyer of the accusedgirl denied the allegations and said that it was the “fear of the SupremeCourt that the police had concocted such lies”. MuzamilGujjar said that his client had not given any such statement before the police.

The defence lawyer alleged, “Police are telling lies and trying to appease the SupremeCourt by saying that they have arrested the culprit and they are trying to implicate these innocent families to hide their own failure.”

He also alleged that his client, ZahraMehek, was kept in policecustody for more than 16 hours and was physically and mentally tortured by policemen from the BharaKahu and SectorI9policestations, to force her to confess the crime.

The lawyer further alleged that policemen had also tortured the accused man and forced him to own up to raping and killing the diseased.

Bhara Kahu Police Station Sub-inspector Maqsood Ahmad said, “We got a four–dayremand of Ibrar on Saturday from SessionJudgeAyeshaShabbir and the accused has confessed to raping and killing the girl in the initial investigation.” He also said that further details of the reports would be brought to light after questioning the accused.

Meanwhile, the family of Ibrar also denied the charges and said that the police had no evidence that linked Ibrar to the crime and the police were relying on the statement of the younger brother of the deceased minorgirl, “who is only fouryearsold”.

A family member of Ibrar, who wished to remain unnamed, told DailyTimes, “It is an attempt by the police to justify to the SupremeCourt that they are concerned about the murder.”
